Posted 30/10/07 06:07 AM Share Posted 30/10/07 06:07 AM The NGK's were 0.8 and I reduced them to 0.6 however I did it with a hammer and I'm guessing they are not all the same....I've never gapped plugs before.....Go to ford , get the standard type plug PN AGSP22Z11 gap them with a feeler gauge nothin elseshould be right then, .8 is where you want them to be..pete Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39365-hmm-t-wont-accelerate/page/2/#findComment-590307 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHOWDOWN BACK SLOWER THEN EVER! Member 706 Member For: 17y 9m 29d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 30/10/07 10:51 AM Share Posted 30/10/07 10:51 AM Gilto The gapping has to be precise mate otherwise that could add to the problems. Try getting fraud to replace them, I was luck they did mine. Make sure you tell them that you want them to be gapped to .8.Also have you been using a different fuel to normal??Ozzie Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/39365-hmm-t-wont-accelerate/page/2/#findComment-590426 Share on other sites More sharing options...
